Quick Text Plugin
Quick Text gives you (get ready for it) quick text when you post. Creative eh? So here's the deal: sometimes you write the same bit over and over, so why write it? Why not have a little button insert pre-written stuff for you? That's what motivated adding this to my list of tremendously useless plugins.
For an example of what this does, see the image below linked to the zip file with a bit of text telling you what you probably already knew? THAT is now a canned bit for my installation here. The only thing I have to do is put the actual file name into the bit my "Plugin DownLoad" button inserts. You probably won't have one of those buttons unless you make one because this plugin lets you can a bit of text AND create a label for the button that reminds you what's in the can.
Up to 5 pre-written (canned) bits of text, and you only see the buttons that have something in the can. Oh and you can set it up to allow all 5 or only 2 buttons to be "blogger specific". Still no good way to do "blog specific" yet, but that's a core thing. If I could do it that way I'd offer the option, but it can't so I don't.
Okay watch me throw down some canned text:
Download it, unzip it, upload it, install it via your Global Settings tab, then go to your Write tab to see this plugin do its thing. ... and read the readme!
Cool eh? By the way that canned bit includes bits from my moretags plugin. Double double cool cool indeed! Here comes another one-click addition (only this one is a renderer plugin - quite different):

Nice... I was working on making something similar for v1.10 - to add a consistent credit line for crediting the source of links I use in articles.
I'm trying to figure out a way to automagically insert the code when I point to a graphic so that it renders w/ Lightbox. Would something like this do that for me?
